This is the most enjoyable open world game I've played since Witcher 3 (and Xenoblade Chronicles X before it).

In open world games I like exploring. I don't care much about story even though I welcome a better one. The world in this game is spectacular. The golden birds are also great, they always take you to some significant place and it's a mechanic that I've never seen before. Plus you have the quests that are added to the map and I've never seen that before either. It's much more fun than having the usual quest page with a huge list of quests that you have to select to find the destination. The map is always full of destinations to find out and that's incredibly fun.

This game also has the merchants that turn golden on the map when you have enough resources to buy something from them. I've never seen this before. It's great.

Loading times are insane. You can die without fear of being punished by 30s of loading. Fast travel is truly fast. It's almost instantaneous.

The combat is always fun no matter the flaws you find and I got used to the camera really quickly.

I have an SSD in my PS4 Pro. I don't even have time to read the loading screen tips. It's like 0.5 seconds just to fast travel. :D

So, for those of you who've played it, is this game actually good? Like, is the combat system good, is the stealth good, is the exploration actually worth while? Or is it just another twist on the rather generic AAA open world formula? I have a feeling combat is pretty ok going off reviews and previews, but I'm sort of worried about the stealth and open world part.

Stealth is pretty bad. See my other posts in this thread for more on that. Exploration, and discovery is top tier. Between the Golden Birds, Rising Columns of Smoke from burning villages, Seagulls circling Shrines, and Steam issuing from Hot Springs it's really easy to find your way around in the game. You don't even need a hud, so if you like immersiveness, this is a fantastic open world game. The horse comes to you quickly with just a simple call, and doesn't get lost or stuck on geometry like in Witcher 3.

If you read the whole thread you'll see most here enjoying it. I've played for 15h so far. I was sceptical myself until I started playing. I went from "this game might stink" to "help me I'm addicted".

It's not just another open world RPG. It has a bunch of original map mechanics (or at least that I myself have never seen before) and one of the most interesting worlds since the universally acclaimed Witcher 3 (and some say Breath of the Wild).

I've played Horizon and there were many places I didn't care to check out. On Ghost, I'm licking every inch of the land.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

There were three ravens sat on a tree / They were as blacke as they might be / The one of them said to his mate, Where shall we our breakfast take?

Just finished Act 1. Nice dramatic twist there.

Have anyone chosen to get the smoke bomb? I'd like to know how useful it really is.

Samurai route... but considering there amulets that you recover life with it.

Every sunset. It's an addiction.

I don't even bother with filters cause the game is so pretty by default.

And minor map spoilers ahead, this is all I've cleared after 30-35 hours , this game is going to take so long, it's achieved an addiction I haven't had since God of War which I platinumed in 6 days.

Spoiler!

Spoiler text.

I've never been addicted to a single player game like this and have such a slow pace at the same time. 

I feel the same here. I'm not addicted to a world like this since Witcher 3.

MAN that's a good one.

This game is a mix between witcher 3 a bit of Shadow of the colosus and Tenchu.

The sunsets in this game, man.

Everytime the sunsets or rises I have to take a picture.

It's worse than Horizon ZD.

And speaking of Horizon ZD, here' a similar shot to comparable to the first image above. So there is something to be said about art style over technical graphics and this game proves the point, it clearly looks more pleasing to the eye consistently but it lacks whatever the hell horizon does, The image above is on PROs resolution mode at 1800p and the image below is Horizon on the OG PS4. It's like a great canvas painting versus a great digital painting, they both look good but it differing ways.

Which is better?

Yes.

Comparable to the HZD awe factor? Music to my ears. I was hoping GoT was going to come through. Was going to be able to wait this one out a little while, but seeing the visuals and reading the reviews has upped the hype factor for me significantly. Definitely will need to make space just for screenshots. lol.

How are you supposed to get anything done in this game...

I swear, it's every ten minutes I have to stop and look at something but the sunsets, every damn time...

I just can't help myself at sunrise too...

The golden hour is pure gold in this game...

It never ceases to get my attention...

The games atmosphere comes through the screenshots so distinctly.

You had me at share..
